NUT ACTUAL: Pretty close to plan. Do need salt tabs in weather 85+, Tailwind not enough to combat heat.

Alpine KOM is 4.3 miles long- i did in 43:30 on 7/19. I did same in 49:00 on 9/30/18.
Did the 4.7 rated climb in 45:50

NOTES:
-Power seemed to work better but seemed a bit high.
-Felt good up Rawley Pike.
-Felt good up Fultz Gap until I spun wheel out and then struggled a bit. Need to gear down 1 or use better grip tires.
-Felt great on all flats, very strong. (Was it me or the Tailwind again?).
-Heat got to me on Reddish knob. Had to stop once and take salt tabs.
-Felt great at end however (Tailwind?) except in heat.

  • FIT Course

    Best format for turn-by-turn directions on modern Garmin Edge Devices

  • TCX Course

    Best format for turn by turn directions on Edge 500, 510. Will provide true turn by turn navigation on Edge 800, 810, 1000, Touring including custom cue entries. Great for training when we release those features. Not currently optimal for Virtual Partner.

  • TCX History

    Useful for uploading your activity to another service, keeping records on your own computer etc.

  • GPX Track (.gpx)

    Useful for any GPS unit. Contains no cuesheet entries, only track information (breadcrumb trail). Will provide turn by turn directions (true navigation) on the Edge 705/800/810/1000/Touring, but will not have any custom cues. Works great for Mio Cyclo. Find GPS specific help in our help system.
